The top three reasons you may be getting FRIENDZONED are:

Agreeableness, availability, and accessibility can potentially decrease attraction in dating due to various reasons:

1. Agreeableness: While being agreeable is generally seen as positive, excessive agreeableness can sometimes be perceived as lacking individuality or assertiveness, which may reduce attraction. Dr. David Buss, a prominent evolutionary psychologist, suggests that this perspective is rooted in evolutionary theory, which proposes that certain traits and behaviors have been favored by natural selection due to their reproductive advantages. In this context, assertiveness may be seen as a signal of confidence, social dominance, and the ability to protect and provide for a potential mate and offspring.

2. Availability: When someone is too readily available and constantly accessible, it can create a sense of predictability and diminish the excitement or chase that often fuels attraction.

3. Accessibility: If someone is always easily accessible and does not create a sense of mystery or occasional unavailability, it can lead to complacency and reduce the perceived value or desirability.

It's important to note that these factors may not universally apply to everyone, as individual preferences and circumstances can vary. Communication and finding a balance between these traits can help maintain attraction in dating.

On this week's episode, I lay out ten things to look out for on a first date that can tell you that your date has an avoidant attachment style. In tune last week's episode, I'd like to encourage everyone to be mindful in how they approach making assumptions about their date and instead of writing them off as red flags, get curious about what you see and label the behavior.

On this week's episode of the podcast, I am joined by Samantha Graham, cohost of Where's Our Participation Trophy podcast, to talk about modern dating from the lens of attachment theory.

The title of this podcast comes from viral videos and memes on the internet which can feel confusing for daters in the modern world being told that the right person would be able to read your mind and just give you everything you need, without being asked. Sam and I dig into what is behind this overused phrase that perpetuates the toxic "throw away" culture of modern dating.

If her message resonated with you today, please connect with Sam on Instagram ⁠@_samanthagraham_⁠ and check out her podcast ⁠here⁠.

On this week's episode, I walk you through 10 signs that your date or partner may have an anxious attachment style. Attachment theory research has been evolving since the last 60s and I discovered its impact in my life about five years ago.

After a couple of bad breakups in 2017, I decided to make a change and took ownership of my role in the ending of those relationships. I sought out a counselor and began to interview experts in relationship theory and practice on this podcast. Tune in today to learn how to spot an anxiously attached date while learning tools to grow through this lens of self-awareness.
